UFO Map: Europe 1954
White marks show UFO sightings for all of 1954, but almost all of those were from September to November. Of those, the vast majority were in France, in October.One French cartoon depicted townspeople laughing at the village idiot. The Caption read:
"He's the one who didn't see the flying saucers!"
By late October, activity had shifted into Italy (green spots) and elsewhere in Europe.
Note this 1954 daily histogram
This is the largest single UFO wave on record here. There was some activity in South America, but 1954 was a relatively slow year in North America.
